I suggest to use a "fresh" context for every form you gonna instance, that
will avoid leaving uncommitted objects around in one single context.
You can eventually avoid reflection , since every cayenne objects have
static string fields containing method names, that can be readen/written
using readPropery/writeProperty methods eg:
a.readProperty(AutomCat.AC_CODE_PROPERTY);.
Handling prefetchs in some automated way is also usefull.
